Have had these rain guards and vent windows laying around for a while now. Decided might as well slap them on after work today

Swapped in a grant steering wheel with a quick release hub from ruff stuff and Did the WJ booster and master swap tonight. Haven't gotten to drive it around the block yet but I rolled it around the drive way and it seems to stop much better then it did before. Can't wait to take it for a test drive tomorrow

WJ booster was one of the best upgrades I did for safety. Stops 35s like they're nothing in comparison to 33s with the stock single booster

Did a little update to the OBA today. The Jeep came with an air tank mounted under the bed but it was never hooked up. Decided to finally hook the tank up to my ARB compressor and I added some air chucks to fill up tires and whatnot

Unfortunately this was all I got from the trails that day. I usually get a bunch but didn't really have the chance to take any this time

Rear ARB installed in the 8.8. I hated the way the Detroit behaved on the street with having a 5 speed. It drives much better on the road now with being able to unlock the rear

No real updates lately. Been focusing my spare funds on the upcoming holidays. I did manage to order and install this new stinky fab trans mount after my stock one took a beating on my last wheeling trip. Planning some upgrades starting right after the new year though

How much change in vibration is there with that mount?

Haven't really gotten to drive it yet because I bent my rear driveshaft. But moving it around the garage and the driveway I haven't noticed anything to extreme in terms of vibration. Definitely less slop in the driveline now so I like it so far

PM XJWonders, support the members here. Just saying, his mounts are beef and have had no regrets going to his.
